Description

Octadecenylammonium Acetate is a quaternary ammonium salt surfactant with cationic properties. This compound is valued for its excellent emulsifying, conditioning, and antistatic capabilities in various industrial formulations. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the personal care, textile processing, and agrochemical industries seeking effective cationic surface-active agents.

Application

• Hair Conditioners & Cream Rinses: Acts as a primary cationic surfactant, providing excellent detangling, softness, and manageability to hair.
• Fabric Softeners: Imparts a soft hand feel and reduces static cling in textiles during laundering and finishing processes.
• Agrochemical Adjuvants: Used as an emulsifier and spreading agent in pesticide and herbicide formulations to enhance leaf adhesion and coverage.
• Industrial Emulsifiers: Serves as a cationic emulsifier for oils, waxes, and silicone in various specialty chemical preparations.
• Antistatic Agents: Applied in plastics and synthetic fiber processing to dissipate static electricity.
• Corrosion Inhibitors: Functions as a component in protective coatings and oilfield chemicals due to its film-forming properties on metal surfaces.

Quality Control

Our Octadecenylammonium Acetate is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure consistent purity, performance, and compliance with relevant industry specifications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); keep the container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture.
